Hi dear ones

I applied from CHC Islamabad. ... I applied in sept 06 and still waiting . Some time back they asked for return of money , which i refrained.. Now one month before, I received a letter from Immigration authorities of Saskatchewan that if i wish to apply to provincial nomination program , it will be much faster than the FSW. They said that they received my data from the CIC authorities , which according to them will take couple of years to decide my case. The Saskatchewan authorities wrote in their letter that if i wish to apply to their province then i have to fulfill their conditions and have to apply again for their programme.

Quote from the letter:-

"Recently Saskatchewan received a list from CIC of FSW class applicant who applied prior to FEB 27,08 and indicated they intended to reside in Saskatchewan. Your name was included in the list.

There are approx. 510000 FSW class applicants currently in the federal application category. Changes were made last year that will give priority processing for SW applicants received on or after Feb 27,08 that are either in priority occupations or have arranged employment. Application received prior to Feb. 27, 09 such as yours will be processed over the next few years.
You may wish to to consider applying to SINP as an alternate to waiting for your SW application to be processed by the federal government. The following links will provide you with the information on SINP program criteria to determine if you are likely to be eligible."
I want to knew will my previous application with the CIC will help my case with the saska application or not. What should i do in any way?
Please advice/

Nothing to stop you from leaving your present application in place and still applying for SNIP. If you get the nomination certificate, you send off that application to the processing office and ask to withdraw the FSW one. Your choice.

Saskatchewan's economy has been doing well for a year or two. It is natural resources based. People mining/chemical/petroleum related fields should do good over there.
